The Word

Hello Lovely People,


Yay! We're going to have a magazine! Thank you for all of your contributions. To date, we have completed submissions from the following people: Phillip Barron and Nancy Gallman, John Castner, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Julia Leonard, Nicole Oxendine, Matthew Ramadan, Matthew Sears, Anthony Swaringen, John Troutman, Courtney Wait, and Jack Watson, Nick Winstead.


Don't throw away those course evaluations yet! Although we are currently in the production process, we encourage you to submit one of the following items to enhance the balance of content in the journal:

Reasons for Staying - Thank you notes or letters from your students, parents, co-workers, or administrators; stories of light bulb moments or epiphanies; or anything else that exemplifies why you teach.

Better Practices - Research and/or narratives of exemplary activities, curricula, assessments, or other "better practices" you are willing to share.

Exit Interviews - An anonymous exit interview about why you are leaving your school, your district, and/or teaching.

Poetry

Finally, thank you to everyone for your support, encouragement, and contributions. We will keep you posted as we progress.

walk good,
alexis and sarah

Kudos to You...

You all rock! Thank you for successfully supporting and submitting. Those of you who are currently in possession of a "work in progress," as some of you are, please send those to us no later than Sunday, June 3.

We'll give you all a content update at the end of the week.

walk good,
alexis and sarah

The Weekly Word

Hello People,

We are in the process of accepting submissions for the first issue through this week, until Monday, May 28. Please, if you would like to contribute your thoughts, reflections, ideas, suggestions, and/or vision(s), contact us at caperejournal@gmail.com. If you have questions or concerns about your submission, once again contact us at caperejournal@gmail.com.

As some of you are aware, Capere is incorporating as a non-profit entity. This process is in progress, so hopefully soon the powers that be in this great state of North Carolina will recognize us as such.

This journey began with a conversation between two little journalism teachers with big ideas, and it is going to turn into an actual published print journal... all because of you. Thank you for your support and your submissions. We are thoroughly excited.

Walk good.

peace,
alexis and sarah
